The Artistic Society "La Vall" de Cárcer, (Valencia), was founded in 1892. Although there are some uncertain data confirming this date, as presented in the research of Raúl Carbonell in his book of the 125th anniversary of the society, supposedly it's first musical activity with musicians, goes back to the year 1870 with Mariano Arquiola as the teacher and, it is in the year 1892 when it begins its activity as a municipal band. Therefore, last year 2017 was celebrated brilliantly, its 125th Anniversary.

In the Overture Concert of the events commemorating this institutional event, held on April 1st 2017, the Society was awarded with the Gold Medal of the FSMCV, being the President of the Federation Pedro Rodríguez Navarro, who gave this recognition , in a very emotional act for all the neighbors of Cárcer.

It is important to emphasize the distant history, as much as the principles: in the decade of the 40 and 50 two directors, one of them an illustrious person of Cárcer and a great composer, Antonio Rodríguez Castellano, and the much-remembered Francisco Olmos, with whom the band won many awards, highlighting the first prize of the 2nd Section of the International Competition of Valencia in the year 1944; In the 70s and 80s, under the baton of the two most awarded directors, José María Alba Llàcer and Amadeo Mateu Nadal, first and second prizes were awarded in the Valencia Provincial Council Contests and the Valencia City International Contest:

After the Centennial, in the year 1993, a very young director, Azael Tormo Muñoz, took place, beginning to give the band a modern and hopeful tone, in tune with the young staff.
